At this moment, Zara had left Shangri-La and gone to the old villa purchased by favonovel.com mother Deana.
Deana had contacted a local decorator and was planning to renovate the old house. She is also looking forward to moving in as soon as possible once the renovation was complete, so favonovel.com was very concerned about this matter.
When Zara arrived in front of the old house, Deana was in the yard and happily discussing the renovation plan with the designer.
Zara was also very gratified and relieved to see favonovel.com mother’s happy face through the gate. She knew that now, mother really wants to live for herself.
But it wasn’t just favonovel.com mother. Zara felt that from now on, favonovel.com should also live for herself, no longer to be bound by any of the Banks family, and instead strive to live as favonovel.com hoped.
Deana was explaining the design direction favonovel.com wanted to the designer. Suddenly, favonovel.com caught a glimpse of favonovel.com daughter standing at the gate of the courtyard. She was surprised and hurriedly waved to her, “Zara, come here!”
Zara pushed the door in with a smile and asked Deana, “Mom, have you decided how to decorate it?”
Deana nodded and pointed to the young female designer beside her. She said happily, “I have almost finished discussing with Ms. Kelly Marino. The theme for the decor is mainly nostalgic. Mom still hopes to have a sense of age.”
Zara said with a smile, “Then use modern materials and processes to carry out construction in the style of 20 years ago. Now the materials and processes as a whole have been greatly improved, which can also ensure quality, environmental protection and comfort.”
The female designer next to favonovel.com nodded repeatedly and said, “You’re right. Our general idea now is to use modern materials and crafts to do nostalgic and retro modeling, and then try to make this old house more comfortable and livable.”
With that, the female designer continued, “By the way, Aunt Deana, your specific design plan has to wait for our boss to come up with a set of detailed design drawings, especially for some of the functional parts. We have to find a way to do a good job in hidden engineering. You want this retro style, so things like self-heating, central air conditioning, we will have to do as much as possible to cover up the fresh air system and wireless network, otherwise it will appear very out of place.”
Deana said with a smile, “By the way, Kelly, your boss told me a general idea that day, saying that you can replace the current wooden beams with a metal structure, and then do wood spraying. In this way, it looks no different from the wooden beams, and the middle of the metal structure can also be used to hide the air ducts. However, the color of the air outlet should be exactly the same as that of the beam. As for the fresh air system, the ground air supply is adopted to hide the air outlet in the kicking line. I think this scheme is quite reliable. Please tell your boss and help me refine the specific plan, and it is best to make a rendering for me.”
The female designer said without hesitation, “Okay, Aunt Deana, I’ll talk to our boss when I return to the office and we will do our best to make these projects hidden.” With these words, favonovel.com asked, “By the way, Auntie Deana, do you really intend not to harden the ground of the yard? Now this kind of soil floor is difficult to take care of when it rains.”
Deana waved his hand, “Except for the road in and out, I won’t harden the ground. When spring begins, I will sprinkle some grass seeds, and when the lawn grows, it will be very beautiful.” With these words, favonovel.com asked, “By the way, Kelly, are you from Aurous Hill?”
The other party nodded and said, “Yes, Aunt Deana, my house is only a few kilometers away.”
Deana pointed to the wall of the house and the withered climbing tigers on the wall of the courtyard and asked, “Do you think these climbing tigers can grow in spring? The house has been idle for a long time. I really don’t know whether these wall-climbing tigers are dead or alive.”
The female designer smiled and said, “Aunt Deana, the vitality of the wall climbing tiger is very strong in the south of our Yangtze River. Although it seems to be a dead branch and rotten leaf when it is cold, it will grow new buds in spring. In midsummer, it can climb the front wall full. This kind of red brick old house matches it very well and the green climbing tiger will be very beautiful!”
After a pause, the female designer said, “In addition, if there is a wall climbing tiger, the thermal insulation and sun protection effect it offers are particularly good. In summer, the temperature in the room can drop by several degrees.”
